Raw Unrefined Shea Butter

Description 

Butyrospermum Parkii Butter

Raw Unrefined Shea Butter is a nutrient-rich, natural butter extracted from the nuts of the African Shea tree. Handcrafted using traditional methods, this butter retains its natural vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids, giving it a luxurious, creamy texture. Unlike refined versions, raw shea butter maintains its characteristic earthy aroma and ivory colour, offering maximum nourishment for skin, hair, and nails. It's a versatile beauty staple, widely celebrated for its deeply moisturising and healing properties.

Benefits 

• Deep Moisturisation: Rich in fatty acids, shea butter provides intense hydration, making it ideal for dry, cracked skin.
• Anti-inflammatory: Natural healing properties help soothe irritation and inflammation, perfect for eczema, psoriasis, and other skin conditions.
• Vitamins A & E: Packed with skin-loving vitamins that promote cell regeneration, reducing signs of aging and improving skin elasticity.
• Scar & Stretch Mark Reduction: Regular use can help diminish the appearance of scars and stretch marks.
• Natural UV Protection: While not a substitute for sunscreen, it provides minor protection from UV rays (SPF 3-4).

Hair Mask: Use as a deep-conditioning treatment to repair and moisturise dry, damaged hair.

Caution 

• Allergy Testing: Always perform a patch test before using it on the skin to check for potential allergic reactions. 

Stash It Right
